Splinkerette PCR for mapping transposable elements in Drosophila. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Transposable elements (such as the P-element and piggyBac) have been used to introduce thousands of transgenic constructs into the Drosophila genome.

Transposable element invasions [PDF]
Mobile Genetic Elements, 2013 Transposable elements have an ongoing, largely parasitic interaction with their hosts. We are interested in the timescale of this interaction. In a recent publication, we have examined the sequence divergence between class II DNA transposons from mammalian genomes.

The 5' untranslated region of the I factor, a long interspersed nuclear element-like retrotransposon of Drosophila melanogaster, contains an internal promoter and sequences that regulate expression [PDF]
, 1993 The I-R system of hybrid dysgenesis in Drosophila melanogaster is controlled by a long interspersed nuclear element-like retroposon, the I factor.

Transposable element-derived sequences in vertebrate development
Mobile DNA, 2021 Transposable elements (TEs) are major components of all vertebrate genomes that can cause deleterious insertions and genomic instability. However, depending on the specific genomic context of their insertion site, TE sequences can sometimes get ...

Transposable elements in Drosophila [PDF]
Mobile Genetic Elements, 2017 Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile genetic elements that can mobilize within host genomes. As TEs comprise more than 40% of the human genome and are linked to numerous diseases, understanding their mechanisms of mobilization and regulation is important. Drosophila melanogaster is an ideal model organism for the study of eukaryotic TEs as its genome

Transposable-element-silencing genes over diverse fungal genomes.
, 2020 The orthologs were inferred using OrthoFinder 1.0.6. Dim-2 and Masc2, Sms-3 and Dcl2, and Sms-2 and Qde2 were further differentiated from the gene trees because they belonged to the same gene families. Reference genes are listed in Table A in S2 File.

Mobile DNA and the TE-Thrust Hypothesis: Supporting Evidence from the Primates [PDF]
, 2011 Transposable elements (TEs) are increasingly being recognized as powerful facilitators of evolution. We propose the TE-Thrust hypothesis to encompass TE-facilitated processes by which genomes self-engineer coding, regulatory, karyotypic or other genetic ...

DNA-binding activity and subunit interaction of the mariner transposase [PDF]
, 2001 Mos1 is a member of the mariner/Tc1 family of transposable elements originally identified in Drosophila mauritiana. It has 28 bp terminal inverted repeats and like other elements of this type it transposes by a cut and paste mechanism, inserts at TA ...
